ABOUT US

Hidden Villa History

Hidden Villa's story is a collection of many histories; the history of an inspirational and visionary family, the history of a local nonprofit organization, the history of our changing social values, and the history of the Bay Area, California, and the west. In all of these story lines, stewardship is a common theme. Hidden Villa offers a fixed lens with which we can look back to the earliest known stewards, the Ohlone people, up through the days of missionaries, logging, and stagecoach travel, to Hidden Villa as a nonprofit organization working to inspire a just and sustainable future through our programs, land, and legacy. We hope you enjoy a glimpse into Hidden Villa’s past and join us in stewarding this gem for countless generations to come.
